The increase in complexity of treatment plans over time through modalities such as intensity
modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) has often not …

Radiotherapy treatment planning can produce complex dose distributions which can be
difficult to verify. An independent verification tool with Monte Carlo (MC) dose calculation …

We have developed a fast and accurate in‐house Monte Carlo (MC) secondary monitor unit
(MU) check method, based on the EGS nrc system, for independent verification of volumetric …

Monte Carlo (MC) methods provide the most accurate to-date dose calculations in
heterogeneous media and complex geometries, and this spawns increasing interest in …

Purpose: Validation of a new software version of a Monte Carlo treatment planning system
through comparing plans generated by two software versions in volumetric-modulated arc …

Abstract An integrated Monte Carlo (MC) dose calculation system, MCRTV (Monte Carlo for
radiotherapy treatment plan verification), has been developed for clinical treatment plan …

A Monte Carlo treatment plan verification (MCTPV) system was developed for clinical
treatment plan verification (TPV), especially for the conformal and intensity-modulated …

Purpose To develop and implement an automated Monte Carlo (MC) system for patient
specific VMAT quality control in a patient geometry that generates treatment planning system …

Abstract Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) treatments are some of the most
complex being delivered by modern megavoltage radiotherapy accelerators. Therefore …

In this work we dosimetrically evaluated the clinical implementation of a commercial Monte
